Default DSE Wiper Motor

Another fun story... Since we were stalled in other areas, Eric tried to install the wiper arms/blades. But they wouldn't like up correctly. The key for the driver's side arm was causing the arm to be way out of position... We must have spent an hour turning the motor on / off and watching the rotating cam do its thing. We finally determined that it wasn't parking. I pulled out the directions, and I definitely ordered the recessed park version of the setup. But it's not 'recessing'. We checked all of the wiring, the cam, everything we could to see if something wasn't right. But to the best of our ability to check, it all seems ok...

The next day, Eric called DSE. After a long conversation, they determine it's either broken or not a recessed park motor. So he packs it up and ships it off to them. Nothing they can do until they have it. Unfortunately they also want the wiring harness since, if they have to replace it, it will be with a newer version of the setup. That means the gauges / switches / AC ducts have to come out (we had just finished installing them the day before).
